A MAN planted a rose and watered it 41 . One day as he examined it, he saw a bud that would soon blossom, but he also 42 thorns (刺) on the stem . He thought, "How can a beautiful flower come from a plant with so many sharp thorns?" Saddened by this thought, he 43 to water the rose, and just before it was ready to bloom, it died.
So it is with many people. Within every soul there is a rose. The good 44 planted in us at birth grow amid the thorns of our faults. Many of us look at ourselves and see only the thorns, the defects. We become 45 , thinking that nothing good can possibly come from us. We neglect to water the good within us, and 46 it dies. We never realize our 47 .
Some people do not see the rose within themselves; someone else must show it to them. One of the greatest gifts a person can 48 is to be able to reach past the thorns and find the rose within others.
This is the characteristic of love ― to look at a person, know his faults, recognize the goodness in his soul, and help him realize that he can 49 his faults. If we show him the "rose" within himself, he will conquer the thorns. Only then will they blossom many times over.

名校练考卷期末冲刺卷系列答案Plastic is one of the most important technological discoveries of the 20th century. However, it may soon be replaced. The new development- liquid wood- can replace plastics in all branches of modern-day industries.
Plastic as a material enjoys the biggest demand in the modern world, but it does have a number of drawbacks. First and foremost, plastic isn’t recyclable. Secondly, it contains toxins (毒物) helping develop cancerous diseases. Finally, it’s made of oil and oil reserves aren’t endless.
The liquid wood technology is likely to replace plastic and providing mankind with new materials for many years ahead. Norbert Eisenfreich, a senior researcher at the Faunhofer Institute for Chemical Technology in Germany (ICT), said that arboform, the new material, is made of lignin(木素质）, which can be obtained from soft tissues of wood. Once mixed with several other matenals, it turns into solid and non-toxic alternative for plastics.
ICT team leader Emilia Regina Inone-Kauffmann said the wood-working industry separates wood into three basic components, including lignin. Lignin isn’t used for the production of paper. Specialists of ICT mixed lignin with several natural materials and thus invented the material which could be melted and molded (铸型）.
When solid, arboform looks like plastic and possesses tho qualitie of polished wood. It can be used for the production of any items. Arboform is already used for the production of car parts which require extra strength. In addition, liquid wood can be recycled repeatedly. The material preserved all of its qualities even if it’s reprocessed ten times.
However, the new invention doesn’t enjoy an extensive use due to the high content of sulfur(硫) in it. German researchers are sure to reduce the amount of sulfur by 90% very soon to make arboform usable for home needs.
